N54 Drift Beast Unleashed: Ultimate Intercooler Install on a BMW 1 Series!

[@herlegz6969]

Glad to see this, e8x content is fantastic. This drift build will be nice!

[@shawzymusic]

Not even a minute in and this is already one of your most entertaining videos. I’m excited for the new era. Welcome back!

[@mrmusic1880]

I am so glad to see your video's again!😊😊 I just want to say something, please do not put an after market front lip on your g20, it looks so much better stock, if you have to get a lip I suggest OE M performance parts!

[@VehicularDIY]

Thanks! Yeah I wasn't planning on it, I stopped putting lips on my cars as thinking about scrapping it all the time becomes annoying, also some driveways are super steep in California so I don't think it would last anyway.

[@mrmusic1880]

@@VehicularDIY Very pleased to hear this, thank you for the reply😁

In the end, Alex will be n54 addicted. 😉 Mine will get the 5-inch one because my car has the adapted cruise sensor in the way too. The first step is done finally; I installed the index 12 injectors last week.

Damn it's been time. Glad to see them still coming. My mosfets just went to shyt.. perks of MSD80

Great vid, I've installed a VRSF intercooler on my 2016 428i (manual). Great upgrade from stock.

[@NieJestemzPolskiPL]

Nice and clean 😎

[@BimmerMafia]

Good ol yellow headlamps. Mine are same rn. We’ll get around to it.

ARM makes a single piece 3" hose to connect the intercooler outlet to charge pipe! Highly recommend it with two Murray constant tension clamps

[@r3drogo]

Which benefits that hose provide?

[@r3drogo]

Isn't suppose that 7.5 inches FMIC are intended for single/upgraded twins?

[@emanyankee]

Phew thought after your last video you had moved away from making n54 videos. Glad that’s not the case!!

[@Lolitofuneko]

Is the only difference between competitive and race, that the height on the highest part of the cooler is different?

[@nickbarba9809]

yes

[@dfqnexxus3710]

What happened to the E88 ? Are you still going to be doing content on it ?

[@n55tourist32]

are people concerned about the mosfets in the DME? I barely know what I'm talking about, but I'm assuming that's what you're referring to. anyway, I know someone from one of our N54/N55 tuning groups in germany who is known to do quality upgrades for the N54 DMEs to make them bulletproof FYI.

[@WhoTfsTrendn]

Bro I picked up a 5 inch I'm bolt on with a 2011 335i (N55 ) yea Ik talk shit but she's fast I've Beata few 392 top end and. Q50s on stage 1 plus

[@yaron54]

Can confirm, installing that intercooler on a 335is with the bumper still on was not fun.

[@matthewmaunakea923]

"if you stay under 400 the DME wont be temperamental..." Is that regardless of chassis( e92 vs e82)?

[@selimhankumcu5042]

Hi, i have a long going problem with my n54. When I have my coldstart or if it is on the warm temperature. My exhaust smells extremely bad to fuel. And when I drive normally there is no problem. But at high RPM. Like if put foot on the gas heavily the car goes crazy. The rpms drop quickly and go back to normal in seconds and this goes on. We checked the logs. My HPFP LPFP and timing drop directly. My injectors are changed. Lpfp is changed. Hpfp is changed. The rails are changed. Now we are going to change the EKPM fuel pump module. What do you think it will cause this?

[@selimhankumcu5042]

@@n54action yes we did check them en they are index 12s and are coded on the correct values. This problem began after the engine got out of the car and my turbos were rebuild and the vanosses were changed.

A drift car is like automotive circle jerking. The car is neither fast on the track nor component on the street.

[@VehicularDIY]

I think his plan for this one is to keep it street able but make it capable on the track. I think once it's dialed I should do a review of how it feels on the street for someone that has never drifted before. I'm guessing the back end would feel very neutral. For perspective the E88 I'm driving feels way more playful than the G20 I got but the G20 would leave the E88 in the dust on a twisty road, you could carry way more speed. With the lack of power it's a momentum car where you don't want to hit the brakes unless you really need to and to me there is nothing more fun than that. Something that handles super well as long as you have the balls to stay in it and if you don't you get punished as it'll take more time to get back to where you were. That's what made the E30 M3 charming, so a drift car is kind of like that where your lack of commitment leads to disappointment lol.

or in other words: a drift car is fun
